Toit's NEW Training/Diet Log...10/06

[toitasatiger]

Okay, so i'm just starting this right now so that I'm aware that it's here and waiting for me on Monday...I'm as pumped as I was last year when i got down to my smallest size and in the best shape I've ever been in as well as the healthiest. I'm so ready for this because I was down to a size 2 at 125lbs and then lost a boyfriend in a breakup and started partying waaaay too much and gained 15lbs!!! DEPRESSING! but I'm coming back and I'm so focused....so now I'm at a gross 140 (gross for me anyways because i'm short) and my goal is to get back to 125 or size 2-4...i'm not really concerned about the numbers so much and i was very comfortable at a 4, i just want to fit nicely into my clothes again. So...Monday, here I come!! Oh yeah, and i joined a running group and training for my first marathon that's in February so that's throwing a whole new thing into the mix for me because i've never done that much running so I'm curious to see how that affects my training that I'm doing at the gym...

yeah, i know that I took it inside and i had it in a plastic grocery bag so I think my roommate or her boyfriend might've thrown it away by accident and they're just not saying anything but whatever, I need a new cup anyways because that one had a crappy lid...

Good job girl!!! Way to keep it up. How you feeling from the Shadow plan?

I feel GREAT after just this first week. This morning when i did my HIIT, i already felt like i was stronger in my strides and cardiovascular wise! I just have to keep up with the eating ENOUGH because I tend to forget meals when i get busy and I need to break myself of doing that. How many calories would you suggest I try to eat for the weight i'm at? I've been meaning to ask someone that but just haven't got around to it. I'm at 140 right now in weight, 5'3, i have no idea what my bf is and I need to weigh myself on Monday to see what i lost from this first week...

I know I know!!! i've been slacking with keeping up on my logs. I'm fixing that starting today...I'm at the start of week 3 and I'm not really seeing anything yet but I'm trying not to let it get me down...i kinda cheated last week and had some drinks (yep, alcohol) which I said i wasn't going to do because I'm 100% serious about this so I'm starting over today with the no drinking rule and I'm sticking to it this time around. I can do this!!!!! I've done it before!

7:30am-7.5 mile run with running group. I did awesome!!! If i don't say so myself...but really i felt so great and never felt out of energy and it was a hilly run. My saving grace is seriously my strength training. I'm really pushing myself harder this time around on Shadow's project because I'm aware of what I am capable of doing. THis is my first time training for a marathon but i think the weight training at HIIT cardio and all the water i'm drinking is really what's making me feel so great during these semi-long runs Thanks Shadow...even though you'll probably never see this

I've noticed it's really helped my running become easier with the strength training but honestly i haven't really had anybody comment on any changes yet. I'm slowly starting to notice a change in my clothes but for some reason i don't feel like it's coming off that fast just yet. I'm just trying to be patient but i'll look at myself in the mirror and i don't feel like i look so great right now. this time around i started the training at a heavier weight compared to last year but I'm sticking with it. unfortunately i don't have a camera but i'll see if my roommate will let me borrow hers for some progress pics in the next week or two.

Yeahhh that would be great!! You can also tape if you like that way you can also see what is shrinking/growing ect. Especially if the scale does not move around.

I ran 11.5 miles this past Saturday for the marathon training and it's getting easier and easier as we go up in miles. my workouts have been off this week (behind a day) because i was out of town visiting a guy i'm kinda dating that just got back from Iraq so that's been interesting...
